Here are a few tips from Dennis Flack to help beautify your lawn on a budget:

1. Buy your gravel or landscaping stones from a quarry instead of a department store.


2. Check with the city or county you live in to see if they have a free mulch or compost site. Many towns have these and are glad to get rid of it.


3. Lay old newspapers on the ground, several layers thick, for weed block. Make sure that you cover the newspapers right away with mulch or landscaping rock, so they don't blow away.


4. Check out garage sales. Several times, I have found gardening tools, landscaping edging, plants, etc. for pennies on the dollar of what it would cost to buy at the store.
